Southern Rail is getting tough on falling leaves and has changed trains' running times to "combat" the threat.
While its services will all terminate at normal time, the operator has scheduled some services earlier to erase potential delays caused by leaves on the line.
From next Monday, October 5, you will need to totally recall the following details to avoid being a late-running man (or woman):
- 6.09 Caterham to London Bridge: Starts at 6.07 and runs two minutes early to Purley, then as booked
- 5.49 and 6.20 Horsham to Victoria via Sutton: Start three minutes early and run three minutes early to Dorking, then as booked
- 6.54 Horsham to Victoria via Sutton: Starts at 6.53 and runs a minute early to Leatherhead, then as booked
From Mon 5th October a small number of services will be tweaked to combat seasonal leaf fall. http://t.co/GjftBgbCmz pic.twitter.com/IjEVjSJvpg
